Training-Free Location-Aware Text-to-Image Synthesis

Authors:Jiafeng Mao, Xueting Wang

Current large-scale generative models have impressive efficiency in generating high-quality images based on text prompts. However, they lack the ability to precisely control the size and position of objects in the generated image. In this study, we analyze the generative mechanism of the stable diffusion model and propose a new interactive generation paradigm that allows users to specify the position of generated objects without additional training. Moreover, we propose an object detection-based evaluation metric to assess the control capability of location aware generation task. Our experimental results show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods on both control capacity and image quality.

Edit Everything: A Text-Guided Generative System for Images Editing

Authors:Defeng Xie, Ruichen Wang, Jian Ma, Chen Chen, Haonan Lu, Dong Yang, Fobo Shi, Xiaodong Lin

We introduce a new generative system called Edit Everything, which can take image and text inputs and produce image outputs. Edit Everything allows users to edit images using simple text instructions. Our system designs prompts to guide the visual module in generating requested images. Experiments demonstrate that Edit Everything facilitates the implementation of the visual aspects of Stable Diffusion with the use of Segment Anything model and CLIP. Our system is publicly available at https://github.com/DefengXie/Edit_Everything.

Large multimodal datasets have been instrumental in recent breakthroughs such as CLIP, Stable Diffusion, and GPT-4. At the same time, datasets rarely receive the same research attention as model architectures or training algorithms. To address this shortcoming in the machine learning ecosystem, we introduce DataComp, a benchmark where the training code is fixed and researchers innovate by proposing new training sets. We provide a testbed for dataset experiments centered around a new candidate pool of 12.8B image-text pairs from Common Crawl. Participants in our benchmark design new filtering techniques or curate new data sources and then evaluate their new dataset by running our standardized CLIP training code and testing on 38 downstream test sets. Our benchmark consists of multiple scales, with four candidate pool sizes and associated compute budgets ranging from 12.8M to 12.8B samples seen during training. This multi-scale design facilitates the study of scaling trends and makes the benchmark accessible to researchers with varying resources. Our baseline experiments show that the DataComp workflow is a promising way of improving multimodal datasets. We introduce DataComp-1B, a dataset created by applying a simple filtering algorithm to the 12.8B candidate pool. The resulting 1.4B subset enables training a CLIP ViT-L/14 from scratch to 79.2% zero-shot accuracy on ImageNet. Our new ViT-L/14 model outperforms a larger ViT-g/14 trained on LAION-2B by 0.7 percentage points while requiring 9x less training compute. We also outperform OpenAI’s CLIP ViT-L/14 by 3.7 percentage points, which is trained with the same compute budget as our model. These gains highlight the potential for improving model performance by carefully curating training sets. We view DataComp-1B as only the first step and hope that DataComp paves the way toward the next generation of multimodal datasets.

Functional Diffusion Maps

Authors:María Barroso, Carlos María Alaíz, Ángela Fernández, Jose Luis Torrecilla

Nowadays many real-world datasets can be considered as functional, in the sense that the processes which generate them are continuous. A fundamental property of this type of data is that in theory they belong to an infinite-dimensional space. Although in practice we usually receive finite observations, they are still high-dimensional and hence dimensionality reduction methods are crucial. In this vein, the main state-of-the-art method for functional data analysis is Functional PCA. Nevertheless, this classic technique assumes that the data lie in a linear manifold, and hence it could have problems when this hypothesis is not fulfilled. In this research, attention has been placed on a non-linear manifold learning method: Diffusion Maps. The article explains how to extend this multivariate method to functional data and compares its behavior against Functional PCA over different simulated and real examples.
